With the low, magnetic voice of Sang Ying, a tall, imposing figure emerged from an elevator platform on the side… Lei Jie appeared in a flamboyant outfit—gold hair braided into small braids close to his scalp, then gathered into a single ponytail at the back… Black jodhpurs, black long boots, and on his black belt, an eagle-shaped buckle inlaid with gray and black rhinestones… The collar and cuffs of his olive-green shirt were edged with black sequins… His collar was slightly open, revealing a glimpse of his solid chest, along with Oton’s ‘Blue Devil’… On both sides of his chest were two symmetrical parallel lines of black rhinestones… The look was sharp yet luxurious, perfectly showcasing Lei Jie’s noble and wild nature… Oton looked at Lei Jie’s arrival in a daze, hadn’t he said he was attending a gambling festival in Las Vegas and couldn’t make it? Lei Jie gave a wild, unrestrained smile, walked forward, took Oton’s hand, and took the microphone: “Today marks the premiere of ‘Dragon Quest,’ and it’s also the day I propose to Tong…” “Wowwwww…” Applause erupted… “Thank you all for your attention to our marriage. On our wedding day, we will definitely give you some small gifts… Now, I want to give a gift to my fiancée…” Lei Jie smiled enchantingly at Oton… The main creators of ‘Dragon Quest’ voluntarily stepped aside… Andre and four hostesses pushed a giant cake and a champagne tower onto the stage… Soft music began to play… Lei Jie took the document handed to him by Andre and waved it: “All proceeds from ‘Dragon Quest,’ along with any derivative products, will go entirely to my fiancée, Miss Guiye Tong!” Oton was stunned for a moment, then broke into a beautiful smile, leaned close to Lei Jie, and whispered: “Ben, I’m already a little rich woman, are you still going to stuff my wallet?” Lei Jie smiled slightly, lowered his head to Oton’s ear, and said, “I’m responsible for filling your wallet, you’re responsible for filling mine…” Oton blushed… Lei Jie then led Oton by the hand towards the cake, and together they cut it… They then poured champagne over the beautiful champagne tower… The creators of ‘Dragon Quest’ stepped forward, each raising a glass… The hostesses orderly served the remaining champagne to the VIPs in the front row… The scene was filled with enthusiastic noise… Lei Jie and Oton, hand in hand, raised their glasses, smiling at everyone—”Wishing ‘Dragon Quest’ a successful release, and to Tong and me! For love! Cheers!” “Clap clap clap clap clap…” “We wish you well!” “Congratulations!” The audience gave the warmest applause… The creators of ‘Dragon Quest’ came forward one by one to shake hands and offer blessings to Lei Jie and Oton… Vivian, with a calm smile, approached Oton, leaned in to whisper: “Thank you for letting me finish ‘Dragon Quest’… I must pay the price for my jealousy and foolishness… So, from tomorrow, I will return to school… to relearn how to be a true person… I wish you well! And thank you!” The two embraced, and Oton gave a surprised yet relieved smile… Apparently, Lei Jie had already sent someone to educate Vivian, helping her to realize and return to her true self… Lei Jie handed his empty glass to a hostess and continued speaking to the audience: “The song ‘Mysterious Forbidden’ is the theme song for ‘Dragon Quest,’ as well as the theme of our love!” “Wowwwww…” The applause grew louder… So this was the most mysterious theme song of ‘Dragon Quest’… It was sung by the Duke himself… So shocking… The creators of ‘Dragon Quest’ returned to their seats with smiles, leaving the stage to this outstanding couple… Oton was moved beyond words, how could Lei Jie, such a proud man, sing the theme song for her… The family’s ancient belief… The love of dragons comes from the deepest stirrings of the heart… It’s you who transformed the vast sea into mulberry fields, the fleeting into flying sand; when I brush away the dust of historical evolution, I see you, my love… Unable to approach, unable to touch, I seek a way out… Unable to possess, unable to kiss, I set out helplessly… You are like that mysterious taboo, only appearing in my dreams… I believe in the ancient legends, seeking you at the edge of dreams… Oton gripped Lei Jie’s hand tightly, singing along with him… Meanwhile, the large screen in the background opened to reveal the opening of ‘Dragon Quest’… And playing, in harmony with Lei Jie and Oton’s voices, was the recorded duet version of the theme song ‘Mysterious Forbidden’… Turns out, after Oton recorded the theme song for ‘Dragon Quest,’ Lei Jie used the latest technology to add his own voice, creating the duet version now playing… “Now, please enjoy the film—’Dragon Quest’!” Lei Jie handed the microphone to the host, embraced Oton, and walked off stage… They sat together in the central VIP seats to watch the film… Everyone stood up, applauding to welcome ‘Dragon Quest’… 130 minutes later… The screen fell, and the audience stood up once more in applause… “We wish you well, Duke Lei Jie and Lady Tong!” “It was spectacular!” “A true masterpiece!” “Encore!” Andy smiled and came on stage to perform the end credits song… Lei Jie and Oton waved at the crowd with smiles… Then, escorted by a row of men in black, they were the first to leave the venue…
The next day—All news media erupted again with the same news… “The Premiere of ‘Dragon Quest’ was an unprecedented success!” “Duke Lei Jie-Ben-Fuken, at the Imperial Theater, at the premiere of ‘Dragon Quest,’ romantically joined hands with his beloved wife, Oton, to perform the sweetest and most loving ‘Mysterious Forbidden’!” Lei Jie held Oton, looking at all the electronic screens across from the Empire State Building replaying scenes from last night’s premiere… Smiling, Oton stood on tiptoe, cupped Lei Jie’s handsome face: “Thank you, I will love you forever!” Lei Jie lowered his head, kissed Oton: “I love you too, my lady!”
